Substitute new wife: Mr. Pei, are you getting divorced today?

"You are right, Xiao Jian knows Pei Yanzhou, and he was one of the suspects who kidnapped Pei Yanzhou."

Father Mu nodded with a wry smile.

Mu Ruoqi's eyes widened, her whole body seemed to be stunned, and then her breathing became rapid.

"Dad, you...don't lie to me."

Her voice faltered.

Can't believe the truth I heard.

"Don't tell me that you were also involved in the kidnapping case back then." Mu Ruoqi held Mu's father's arm tightly.

"I'm not involved."

Mu's father shook his head, but the next words made Mu Ruoqi almost collapse.

"Listen to me, not long after Xiao Jian was arrested, the new leader made the management of the place worse and worse. We couldn't get any jobs at all. Then I went to work in Shishan County, where I met your mother. Then there were you and Xuetong. Your mother had to take care of you at home at that time. The pressure at home was all on me. I had to help at the construction site during the day, and at night I had to work part-time at a supper shop owned by a relative at home. Then, I saw Xiao Jian again."

Recalling what happened in the past, Mu's father looked responsible, "We haven't seen each other for many years. I almost didn't recognize him. He was doing very well and was wearing a thick gold chain. He looked very rich at first glance. I At the time, I couldn’t figure out why I was worse off than someone who had been in prison when I worked so hard.

I wanted Xiao Jian to take care of me, so I took the initiative to talk to him, but he looked down on me at all.

Many times when I was bringing food to the private room, they would suddenly quiet down and become very alert. I always felt that they were quite mysterious.

Not long ago, one time when you were in poor health, your grandma told you about a wild prescription that was useful for eating wild Polygonum multiflorum. I went back to the mountains in my hometown to dig for it. Unexpectedly, I saw Xiao Jian and his gang wandering around in the mountains. They As he walked, he said, "Brother Long, this place I chose is good. I guarantee that after I kidnap that kid, no matter how hard his family searches, they will never find him in this remote place."

Father Mu looked at his pale-faced daughter, "I was stunned at that time. You said how could I dare to come out and recognize someone? You scared me so much that I quickly hid in the grass. I heard a rough idea of ​​what they said. I Only then did I realize that Xiao Jian and his gang were engaged in kidnapping and extortion. This time, it seemed that someone hired them to kidnap a very wealthy young man. From what I heard at the time, it sounded like this rich young man had hundreds of millions in his family. assets."

Hearing this, Mu Ruoqi roughly understood, and she murmured, "So you didn't save Yan Zhou by accident at all, you did..."

Mu's father closed his eyes and said, "Ruoqi, you should understand how hard we suffered when we were children. Your mother and I were not hardworking enough. We worked from early in the morning to late at night, but no matter how hard we worked, some people could always take it easy. I made a lot of money. I thought at the time, I didn’t do bad things. If I could find an opportunity to secretly rescue someone and send him home, the billionaire’s family would definitely compensate me a lot of money. If nothing else happened, You can get one house."

"But you didn't go back without Yan Zhou..." Mu Ruoqi said.

"I can't help it, he has lost his memory."

Mu's father smiled bitterly, "He didn't know where his home was or who he was. At first, I regretted it a little. I also asked the police to inquire. In fact, I didn't know who lost the child. The Internet was not developed at that time. When I was at a loss what to do, I suddenly saw an article in the newspaper. It told the story of a childless couple who kindly adopted a child. The child succeeded and was admitted to Peking University. After graduation, he bought a house and a car for his adoptive parents. I bought a pension insurance...

After reading it, I immediately thought about it. After all, Yan Zhou is seven or eight years old, and he is a boy. He does not need my care. I only need to be responsible for his three meals a day, and there is usually someone at home to help with the work.

And when he grows up and establishes a deep relationship with us, he will repay us when he grows up.

It would be better if he could recover his memory one day. When he returns to his biological parents, his heart will be towards us. Just picking some money from their parents' fingers will be enough for our family to be prosperous and wealthy. "

In fact it is.

After Pei Yanzhou regained his memory, he returned to the Pei family. Not only did the Pei family give their family 10 million, but Pei Yanzhou even brought them to Su City and let them live on a flat floor in Su City, where every inch of land was precious. Driving a Mercedes-Benz and giving them decent jobs.

All that was like a dream to everyone in the Mu family.

Ten million, no matter how hard they work for a lifetime, they will never make that much money.

Father Mu felt that this was the smartest thing he had ever done in his life.

Mu Ruoqi was stunned.

She never thought that her biological father, who seemed honest and useless, could do such a thing that had been planned for more than ten years.

At this moment, Mu Ruoqi finally looked like someone.

Mu's father looked at her helplessly and said: "When we were children, I asked you two sisters to be nice to Yan Zhou. I thought that the three of you grew up together and might be able to fall in love for a long time. After Yan Zhou returned to Pei's house, we could marry him again. You, then our Mu family will be able to completely change our look and shine, and others will no longer look down on us, but it's a pity that you two are so disappointing."

Mu Ruoqi took a deep breath and said, "Dad, I really underestimated you before. You just asked me to exchange cash for gold for a car. It couldn't be..."

"Yan Zhou just mentioned Jinqiu Farm and Xiao Jian to me. He must be suspicious of something."

Mu's father said anxiously, "Ruoqi, don't still think about marrying Pei Yanzhou at this time. Haven't you seen that his attitude has changed a lot today? He will never marry you. Money is more important. You Think about it, if we have no money, we will have to squeeze into a shabby house of about thirty square meters as before. You can no longer think about driving a luxury car, driving an enviable training school, and going anywhere. It’s the envious eyes of others looking at you.”

Mu Ruoqi's breathing was rapid.

She understood everything Father Mu said.

If Pei Yanzhou is destined not to marry her, she will never be able to live the poor life she had when she was a child.

She even clearly remembered that the kitchen floor at home was full of cockroaches, which scared her so much that she couldn't sleep all night.

"Dad, we need to calm down about this first."

Mu Ruoqi held Mu's father's arm and said, "Even if Pei Yanzhou suspects you and wants to come up with conclusive evidence, he won't be able to come up with it in a short while. After all, you overheard everything secretly yourself. You must You have to insist on not admitting it, as long as you don't admit it, the Pei family will be the unreasonable party."

Father Mu was slightly panicked, "But what if, the Pei family is so powerful that squeezing us to death would be like squeezing ants to death."

Mu Xuetong bit her lip fiercely, "In this case, you go back secretly and hide all those watches, calligraphy and paintings, and I will exchange some gold, but we have to do it quietly so that no one can notice."
